11.1.2 Installing Second Console

  1. Download the software. For download instructions, see the release-specific Release Notes.

  2. Unzip the tar.gz file by using the tar -xzvf <filename> command.

    Most of the installation process is the same for a secondary console as for a primary. For these basic instructions, see Installing Administration Console in the NetIQ Access Manager 5.0 Installation and Upgrade Guide.

  3. To install a secondary console, answer No to the following prompt:

    Is this the primary administration server in a failover group?
  4. When prompted, specify the IP address of the primary console.

  5. Continue with the installation process.

    After installing a secondary console, you might need to wait from 30 to 60 minutes before using it. The components query the primary console hourly for information about available consoles, and they reject commands from a console that is not in their approved list. You can force components to recognize the secondary console by restarting the Integration Agent on each Identity Server and Access Gateway with the following command:

    /etc/init.d/novell-jcc restart
